Radostina Boseva — film wedding photographer, California & Europe
Based between San Francisco and Europe, I photograph weddings across California — Napa Valley, Sonoma, Big Sur, Mendocino, Marin — and internationally across Italy, France, Croatia, Greece, Bulgaria, and beyond. Over ten years and 150+ couples, shot almost entirely on analogue film, and here and there digital.
I'm direct. It's an East European thing. You'll always know what I think — and when I tell you your wedding was beautiful, you'll know I mean it.
Direct doesn't mean cold. I promise I'll be your grandmother's favorite person.
Bulgaria raised me. Prague gave me a decade. The accent stayed.
I collect film cameras. Some work, some barely do, none are for sale. Obsessed is the polite word. Maniac is closer.
Ask me about film, darkroom prints, music, or why a photograph works — and cancel whatever you had planned next.
Most of my job is reading people. Some couples need quiet and careful. Some need an energy bomb. I figure out which one you are, usually before the first coffee is gone.
That's also why I photograph on film. It slows me down enough to actually see you.
And what I see stays with me.
for people who want to be seen, not photographed.
